"This resort is in a stunning location and has great potential. The views are beautiful and the grounds well maintained. Rooms are a good size and all (I think) face the ocean.
The staff are friendly and welcoming (as you expect in Samoa!).
I believe the property is recently under new management - when I visited (Easter Sunday 2026) it seemed surprisingly quiet.
I hope that the new owner/management (?) builds on these foundations. For me, obvious steps include:
- Food offerings that better reflect fresh local produce and are more inspiring/unique
- Cocktails that are more memorable and again have some with local individuality
- Culture - find ways to show a little more oflocal culture, history and nature.
Ultimately this was a nice place to stay on my last night in Samoa - with a v early from the airport next door - and would similarly be a good place if arricing too.
